My Endless Life
Chapter 423 The power is out
"Calm down!! Everyone calm down! It's just a temporary power outage! It will be fine soon! It will be fine soon! Now please wait here, don't panic! Don't panic!!"
The military stood on the car and shouted loudly. Without electricity, the radio could not be used. They could only use the most primitive way to inform everyone.
Li Qi listened to the noisy crowd and felt the panic gradually rising from the crowd. He knew that shouting alone could not calm them down.
He simply took out the [Note] and raised his hand to the sky.
A huge white ball of light appeared in Li Qi's hand, and then it was launched into the sky by Li Qi. It suddenly expanded to a size of tens of meters, temporarily illuminating the place and bringing light to the surrounding area.
First-level magic, lighting.
The magic that apprentice-level magicians can cast has no lethality and can only be used for lighting.
Of course, if it is brighter, it may cause temporary blindness, but that's all.
Normal lighting can't be as big as the sky.
But the magic in [Magic Notes] is an enhanced version after being amplified by the magic device, so even if Li Qi does not have the magic device in his hand, he can perform such a huge lighting spell.
The sky is bright again, and the commotion in the crowd is much less.
Including the soldiers and police who are responsible for maintaining order around them, they also relax a lot.
In a completely dark world, there is a huge difference between light and no light. Once the light is lost, even the soldiers who have experienced hundreds of battles will be unable to control the panic.
This has nothing to do with one's own will, it is purely the fear of darkness engraved in the genes of humans.
Li Qi released the lighting spell, as if sending a message, and soon there was a fire flying in the distance.
It was Xie Yan.
"Captain! No... It's not good!"
As soon as Xie Yan landed beside Li Qi, he was panicked and wanted to say something.
Li Qi interrupted him directly: "Let's talk about it later... Captain Meng, I'll trouble you here. I'll go and ask what's going on."
"Eh? Oh... Oh, okay."
Meng Xiaolin, who was responsible for 'looking after' Li Qi, blinked and nodded to respond to Li Qi's order.
Li Qi then walked to Xie Yan's side, casually created a soundproof barrier around himself and Xie Yan, and then asked Xie Yan:
"What happened?"
"The power outage! All the power outages!"
Xie Yan hurriedly reported.
Li Qi frowned: "I can see that the power outage is going on. What is the specific reason for the power outage?"
"No... No, Captain, it's the whole city! Everything with electricity is out of power!"
Xie Yan said in panic.
He was responsible for patrolling in the air. At the moment of the power outage just now, he saw with his own eyes that the originally bright city was completely dark.
That scene was like the light of human civilization was gradually dissipating, which made Xie Yan feel panic.
"?"
Hearing Xie Yan say this, Li Qi immediately took out his mobile phone to check.
But as Xie Yan said, the phone was completely out of power.
Li Qi took out the power bank and tried to charge the phone, but the phone still didn't respond, as if he was holding a brick.
With his eyes slightly narrowed, Li Qi was silent for a long time and pulled out a data cable from his left arm.
Xie Yan: "???"
Ignoring Xie Yan who was shocked by his left hand holding a non-human object, Li Qi plugged the data cable from his left hand into the phone charging port.
Ding——
The phone responded and started to boot up.
"… There is no fault, just simply out of power?"
Seeing that the phone also went dark, Li Qi thought that something was targeting the electronic equipment, causing all things involving electricity to malfunction and stop working.
But now it seems that the electronic equipment itself is intact, and only the "electricity" is lost.
Thinking of this, Li Qi waited for a while, and when the phone was charged to 3%, he unplugged the data cable.
Beep--
A quick reminder sounded, and then Li Qi saw that the power that was originally charged into the phone disappeared instantly. The phone did not even have an animation of shutting down, and the screen went dark directly.
"..."
Seeing this scene, Li Qi knew that something must have happened again.
Looking at the phone with no power solemnly, Li Qi said to Xie Yan:
"Keep an eye on this place, I will go to Zhao Hong to ask."
"Yes! Captain!"
The team led by Zhao Hong was at the end of the entire transfer team at this moment.
There were three circular elevators that could accommodate fifty people, and the evacuation team went underground through the circular elevators.
The original evacuation plan was to divide the people into five parts and transfer them underground in batches. The second batch entered the underground today.
But who could have thought that such a thing would happen.
If the electricity lost its function, the elevator would not be able to operate. The evacuation plan was put on hold for the time being, and the people who had been transferred to the underground before were also trapped there.
The radio could not be used, and all other means of communication failed. No one knew what was going on underground.
Zhao Hong must have been in a state of panic.
Just as Li Qi guessed, Zhao Hong, who was near the elevator, was now in a state of panic.
The elevator lost power and was stuck in the middle due to the emergency brake. All communications were cut off, and it was impossible to contact the government officials underground.
As the person in charge on the ground, Zhao Hong had asked people to contact his team members in the most traditional way.
But without communication, the contact person could only shout or use flag signals.
If Li Qichui's lighting technique hadn't illuminated this place, they might not even be able to use the semaphore.
"Meng An! You're here! Come on, see if there's any way to make the elevator move! At least figure out what's going on below!"
As soon as Li Qi fell from the sky, Zhao Hong quickly said to Li Qi as if he had found a life-saving straw.
Li Qi looked at the isolated crowd behind him, then at the somewhat dark evacuation point, raised his hand and fired another illumination spell, and then said to Zhao Hong:
"What happened?"
"I don't know! All I know is that all of a sudden the power went out! All the backup power supplies also failed! Now we have no idea what happened!"
This work is compiled and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~
Zhao Hong looked a little anxious.
The problems of viruses and contamination have just been solved, but in the past few days, such a big thing has happened again.
And if this incident is not handled well, it may be more serious than before!
Because they have lost any means of communicating with the outside world, they are unable to communicate with the outside world, and even within the same city, they cannot complete instant information transmission!
Once something unexpected happens somewhere, they may have to wait a few minutes, ten minutes, or even hours to find out!
Zhao Hong has now activated the emergency plan, but activating the emergency plan also requires help from the military and political parties, and this requires them to establish effective contact first.
This takes time.
So before that, the most important thing is to rescue the people trapped in the elevator and confirm the situation underground.
Saving people is like putting out a fire. Although the elevator is spacious, if fifty people gather together, the space there will become extremely small, and the oxygen consumption rate is much faster than the replenishment rate.
Rescue was imminent, and Li Qi didn't waste any time talking to Zhao Hong:
"You know I have to pay a price for taking action, right?"
"I know!"
"Very well, tell me where the backup power source for the elevator is."
"Captain Yang, take Captain Meng to the backup power supply quickly!!"
Zhao Hong quickly issued orders to the surrounding soldiers who were responsible for the execution.
A man with a rough face immediately stepped forward and led Li Qi to the backup power supply of the elevator.
Passing through the dark elevator room, Li Qi came to the tightly guarded room. Under the illumination of fluorescent lights that did not require electricity, Li Qi saw the backup power supply of the elevator.
Without avoiding others, Li Qi walked to the elevator power supply and checked it, then unplugged a cable responsible for transmitting electrical energy and put his right hand in.
The right hand of the doll is turned into a cable interface, which accurately fits the socket in the backup power supply.
The energy in one's own body is converted, and the magic energy created using [Notes] is converted into the purest electrical energy, which is input into the backup power supply.
Boom boom——
With the power provided, the backup power supply began to operate, nearby street lights lit up in turn, and the elevator began to operate again.
Zhao Hong, who was observing from outside, breathed a sigh of relief.
He then issued an order to temporarily prohibit people from entering and exiting the elevator. Then he went to the backup power room and found Li Qi, who had turned into a battery:
"Thank you, the elevator is running again."
Li Qi didn't care so much. He estimated the total amount of energy in his body and asked Zhao Hong:
"Have you contacted the above? Do you know what's going on?"
"Not yet. I'll contact you later. How long can you last?"
Zhao Hong asked.
"For half an hour at most, my energy is not unlimited."
Li Qi's energy reserve comes from the magic power created by his [Magic Notes]. To be more precise, it is the magic power created by the [Energy Technique] used in the [Magic Notes].
Because there is no magic in this world, every time energy spell is used through [Magic Notes], the energy spell will bring some magic power.
Li Qi's magic power comes from this, and with the establishment of an internal magic circle, which can replenish his own magic power by converting other objects with energy, Li Qi's puppet body can always move and has excess reserve power.
But even so, he can't always stay here as a battery.
The location where the elevator is connected is thousands of meters deep underground. To go to such a deep place, the energy required is extremely huge. Even if Li Qi really supplies it with all his strength, it will not be able to supply it for a long time.
Therefore, this kind of matter still needs to be handled by the official high-level.
Hearing that Li Qi could only hold on for half an hour, Zhao Hong thought for a while and calculated something.
Finally he looked up and said:
"Okay, twenty minutes! I only need twenty minutes to give you an accurate answer. Before that, I'm begging you!"
"Remember to be prepared for the price."
Li Qi closed his eyes and added another energy spell to himself.
Zhao Hong quickly left the room and found a secluded place to take out the mother-and-son mirror to contact his superiors.
This incident was extremely serious, and he had to find a solution in the shortest possible time.
otherwise……
The more than 200,000 people who were originally transported underground may really be trapped there and unable to get out.
